Paint Correction and Polishing

Swirls, haze and light scratches live in the clear coat. We measure it, then machine it until the paint is clear again.

Machine refinement that removes defects from the clear coat.

Correction levels defects by removing a very thin layer of clear coat with machine polishers, compounds and pads matched to the paint. It removes swirls, buffer trails and water-spot etching. Damage through to colour or primer needs paintwork, and we'll say so.

Most dull paint isn't worn out. It's covered in fine scratches that scatter light. Correcting it restores depth, and it's the essential step before any coating or film.

Right For

Swirled paint, used cars brought back to condition, cars being sold, and any car about to be coated or filmed.

Not the Answer For

Scratches you can catch with a fingernail, or chips down to primer.

Questions About Paint Correction

How much clear coat is removed?

Only as much as each defect needs. We measure before and during the work to keep a safe margin.

How long does it take?

A day for an enhancement, several days for full multi-stage work.

Can every scratch be polished out?

No. Anything through the clear coat can't be. We'll show you what will and won't come out.

Is paint correction the same as rubbing and polishing?

It's the careful version of it. Rubbing (compounding) cuts defects out and polishing refines the finish. Correction does both in measured stages, removing only as much clear coat as each defect needs.

Is paint correction needed before ceramic coating?

Usually. A coating seals in whatever is beneath it, so swirls and haze are corrected first. On new cars, a light enhancement is often enough.

Is polishing bad for car paint?

Each polish removes a little clear coat, so careless or repeated rubbing thins it over time. Measured correction with the right pads and compounds keeps a safe margin.

How much does car polishing cost in Pune?

It depends on the paint's condition and how many stages it needs, which is only clear once the paint is measured. Pricing is shared on request, after an inspection.
